The “iRacing Esports Sim Challenge” will be disputed virtually on the Silverstone racetrack and F1 and Esports fans from the UK can register for the unique chance to secure a slot on one of the teams. The final participants will qualify based on their fastest time during a “fastest lap challenge”.
The final “iRacing Esports Sim Challenge” will take place on November 17 at the new IWC boutique at the Battersea power station in London and will be broadcast globally on the live-streaming platform Twitch.
To mark the official launch, George Russell and Jarno Opmeer got behind the wheel of the team’s Esports simulator at its headquarters in Brackley to test their driving skills on the iconic Silverstone racetrack.
